I guess I'm a bit nervous about my fiance's sexual preference and would like to get an outside opinion or two. A few years back she eneded a long and very bad relationship with a man. Afterwords she almost got into a relationship with a woman, it never amount to more than flirting and a little making out. She told me about this some time ago and said that after kissing this girl once she felt sick and did not want to live her life that way. However, recently the story changed a bit, she said there was more than one instance of physical contact and that she didn't take it further primarily due to concerns of what her mom would think. She did later have some very explicit sexual encounters with women but nothing you could call a loving relationship, she said neither her nor the women she was with wanted that. She's very loyal to me and also very loviing. She sometimes talks about sex with women but I feel she does this mainly to turn me on. Yet I worry about this. Do I have any reason?

Creationism – Elohim (To Whom all praise is due to) intelligently designed us all. God is a cosmic energy in space some trillions light years away. This cosmic energy field has had no beginning it will have no ending. This energy field is made up of different types and forms of energy. This energy field is all knowing for some aspect of its energy is in everything. Have you ever heared of the big bang theory. According to the big band theory, the universe was created between ten billion and 20 billion years ago. This cosmic energy field whom is the Elohim the god of all worlds the ruler and the creator caused the big bang theory creating the planets we are not alone. It then sent some of its energy onto the planets forming. After the ruler and maker of the world created the planets the energy field sent it’s a very powerful infact the most power forceful after of course the Elohim and created what is now called Mother Nature. Mother Nature a supreme energy field is often referred to as angles in the bible for instance “ “Mother nature is an cosmic energy field and blesses us with good weather when we as humans do good deads as a whole. And Mother Nature grants us with bad weather when we as humans to bad deads. Now when Elohim created Earth and send some of his energy to earth creating “Organic Molecules” where ever is energy was sent on our planet.
After this energy field was sent to our planet he sent a more energy powerful energy to our planet and took the energy from the molecules and combined them some another energy that came from him and created different type of plant life including grass leaves trees and the cosmic energy field allowed Mother Nature to take some of its energy and place it in space and create the sun. and all the celestial bodies rotated along, each in its rounded course. The energy that created the plant life had a energy that came from the cosmic energy to create its own food. Then the almighty cosmic energy field took the energy from the organic molecules and the energy field from the plants and a new energy to from his field and created bug life the great almighty supreme energy field then followed the say pattern creating animals then us. We have the same energy as organic molecules , plants,bugs,animals, and a new energy within us. Each life form from organic molecules planets bugs and animals all have the energy of adaptions.So that what ever mother nature may inflict on them or humans inflict on them they can adapt to the climate and survive. We as humans have different types of energy within us and energy never dies.

I'm so happy atheists feel comfortable coming to Yahoo Answers to get their answers about our Lord Jesus Christ. I have learnt so much about atheists and my own beliefs thanks to my experience in sharing the truth. I am just so grateful to the Lord. Thank You!

I've heard from quite a few young earth creationists an attempt to make both the Bible and scientific forms of dating work together. Basically, God created the earth only a few thousand years ago like the Bible tells us if you do the math, but he created it to look old. He created it with already decayed uranium and potassium. He created the universe with starlight already on its way to Earth, so while the star may seem billions of years old, it's only a few thousand.

This is a blatant form of dishonesty. An attempt to fool people into thinking something different than what is true is lying.

Does this not make God a liar? I thought he was without sin.

A woman was thinking about finding a pet to help keep her company at home. She decided she would like to find a beautiful parrot. It wouldn't be as much work as a dog, and it would be fun to hear it speak. She went to a pet shop and immediately spotted a large beautiful parrot. She went to the owner of the store and asked how much the bird cost.
The owner said it was $50.

Delighted that such a rare looking and beautiful bird wasn't more expensive, she agreed to buy it.

The owner looked at her and said, "Look, I should tell you first that this bird used to live in a whorehouse and sometimes it says some pretty vulgar stuff."

The woman thought about this, but decided she had to have the bird. She told the owner that she still wanted the bird. The pet shop owner sold her the bird and she took it home. She hung the bird's cage up in her living room and waited for it to say something. The bird looked around the room, then at her, and said, "New house, new madam."

The woman was a bit shocked at the implication, but then thought "that's not so bad,"

A couple hours later, the woman's two teenage daughters returned from school. When they inspected the bird, it looked at them and said, "New house, new madam, new whores." The girls and the woman were a bit offended at first, but then began to laugh about the situation.

A couple of hours later, the woman's husband, came home from work. The bird looked at him and said, "New house, new madam, new whores... ...same old faces. Hi Ray."

As there are as many angles, as there are individuals, to view anything by, I have found difficulty in deciding on which to choose. More to the point... I've given up trying to choose.

Now, that's not to say that it's difficult to choose. I mean, people choose all the time! Anytime you say something, you've mentally chosen an outlook; a perspective. (many time, though, it's not conscious).

Now, I do have a viewpoint, i have an outlook, but I'm plagued by the realization that there are countless other, just as valid viewpoints to see anything from. This, in 'general' terms, diminishes everything i could possibly say, in my eyes.

I mean... what could I possibly say that would have value in this mind-numbing, endless spectrum of perspectives?

I'm a sarcastic, cynical Atheist, I don't hold any true hostility toward any religious beliefs, I DO respond strongly and often offensively to those that are aggresive in proselytizing their religion, and although I may not agree with people, I do feel everyone has their own valid perspectives....my question is, who hates me because of these characteristics?

What where you saved from?
What if the definition of pretending is to deceive or give a false appearance? What if pretending can fool men, but it cannot fool God? What if it's true that we are known by our fruits? What if Jesus was right in saying that not everyone who calls Him their Lord will enter heaven? (Mt. 7:21) What if Satan wants me to believe I can sin and get away with it? What if God is not only a God of love and forgiveness, but also a God of justice and wrath?

What if it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God? (Heb. 10:31) What if my love for the things of this world reveals that I do not belong to Christ? (1 Jn. 2:15) What if I really should examine myself to see if I am truly in the faith? What if I have not honestly been broken over my sins against God and completely surrendered to the Lordship of Jesus Christ? What if I have broken God's Commandments thousands of times without even caring that it spits in the face of God? What if God holds me accountable for every lie, every lustful thought, and every time I felt hatred toward a person? What if God considers my lust to be adultery and my hatred to be murder? What if I'm actually ignoring the God who gives me my every breath? What if I don’t see myself as an enemy of God, who deserves nothing but eternity in hell? What if God does not desire for me to go to hell, and made a way for me to be forgiven? What if God took my punishment by dying on the cross in the person of Jesus Christ for my sins? What if this conviction in my heart is begging me to truly repent and put my faith in Jesus Christ alone to save me?

What if God had me read this for a reason? What if I'm pretending...

Over the past few years I have heard of many cases of men cheating on their wives, commiting adultery. Even Muslim men. They don't seem to care that adultery is a sin in Islam, they just go and do as they please to satisfy their urges. SICKOS.
The problem I have is that because of this, I have developed a hatred towards men. Sometimes I think to myself that ALL men are cheaters and they are all bad but deep down I know this isn't true. I know there are some genuine men out there that would never cheat on their wife but unfortunately these kind of men are extremely hard to come by nowadays. People have said to me that if the two people truly love each other than they wont ever commit adultery but the problem with males these days is that they can't seem to control their urges. I feel as though no man is ever to be trusted, they are cheaters. If you trust a man he will break your heart. I would never even trust my own husband.
How can I stop feeling this hatred towards men?
